Background: The aim of this study was to estimate the cancer risks and mortalities of
different types induced by routine examinations of digital radiography for one year in …

The objective of this study was to evaluate radiation exposure levels in conjunction with
operator dose implemented, patient vascular characteristics, and other technical …

Background: Angiography through the radial artery is a novel selective approach with
several advantages. Shortening the duration of each stage of the procedure leads to many …

Objectives To assess differences in radiation exposure between transradial access (TRA)
and transfemoral access (TFA) for coronary procedures. Background TRA is associated with …

Background Trans-radial approach for cardiac catheterisation procedures has long been
associated with high operator and patient radiation dose. The aim of the present study was …

Background We previously showed that using the radial artery access site as opposed to the
femoral artery site decreases the radiation exposure of patients during coronary artery …

Technological progress has made it possible to reduce the dose of radiation delivered by
medical x-ray systems. In parallel, interventional coronary procedures have become …

Background Exposure to radiation during fluoroscopically guided cardiac procedures is a
cause for concern for both the patient and staff. Aims This study sought to compare the …

Aims Established, evidence-based measures of radiation are required to minimise its
hazards, while maintaining adequate image quality. The aim of this study is to evaluate …

Ever since the Trans-Radial Approach (TRA) was invented for angiography and angioplasty,
there has been concern about whether this technique increases the patient's and operator's …
